Abstract
Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a system comprising a treadmill. The treadmill comprises a track and a weight stack. The weight stack is coupled to a harness coupleable to a user, the harness constructed to simulate pulling a weighted sled when coupled to the user as the user utilizes the treadmill. The weight stack is coupled to a handle graspable by the user, the harness constructed to simulate pushing a weighted sled when the user grasps the handle as the user utilizes the treadmill.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A system comprising:
a treadmill, the treadmill comprising a track, the treadmill comprising a weight stack, the weight stack coupled to:
a harness coupleable to a user, the harness constructed to simulate pulling a weighted sled when coupled to the user as the user utilizes the treadmill; and
a handle graspable by the user, the harness constructed to simulate pushing a weighted sled when the user grasps the handle as the user utilizes the treadmill.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the treadmill comprises a brake activator that is constructed to, responsive to a user action with the brake activator, stop motion of the track via a brake coupled to the brake activator.
3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the treadmill comprises a brake activator that is constructed to, responsive to a user action with the brake activator, stop motion of the track via a brake coupled to the brake activator, wherein the brake utilizes magnetic resistance.
4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the weight stack is adjustable via a pin.
5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the weight stack is coupled to the harness via a system of pulleys.
6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the weight stack is coupled to the handle via a system of pulleys.
7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the treadmill comprises guiderails graspable by the user.
8 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the track of the treadmill comprises an adjustable incline.
9 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the track of the treadmill comprises an adjustable incline via pinned legs.
10 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the track of the treadmill comprises an adjustable resistance.
11 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the weight stack is lowered via a hydraulic cylinder.
12 . The system of claim 1 , wherein:
the treadmill comprises a hook constructed to retain the harness when the harness is not in use.Cited by (0)
